84. Can AI Transform Family Constellations? | with Lap Fung Cheng

Tracy Cartwright with Lap Fung Cheng

23 Jul 2026

What happens when artificial intelligence meets the deeply human work of Family Constellations?

In this thought-provoking episode of Constellations and All That, Tracy Cartwright is joined by Lap Fung Cheng, a Systemic Constellation Facilitator and Trainer who has worked extensively throughout mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. As one of the pioneers of Family Constellations in China, Lap brings a unique perspective on integrating emerging technology with systemic practice.


Together, they explore how AI is beginning to support the learning and practice of Family Constellations and where its limits lie. Lap shares how he's developing AI tools to help students learn faster, using thousands of real-life constellation cases while emphasising that human intuition, presence, and the ability to read the field remain uniquely human.


The conversation also explores:


  • How AI can support Family Constellations without replacing facilitators

  • Why intuition and presence cannot be replicated by technology

  • The "Wi-Fi" and "iCloud" metaphor for understanding the constellation field

  • Bringing Family Constellations to China and making the work more accessible

  • The future of healing, consciousness, and systemic work in an AI-driven world

  • How evolving family systems may shape the future of humanity


Whether you're an experienced facilitator, a student of Family Constellations, or simply curious about how technology is reshaping the helping professions, this conversation offers fresh perspectives on where innovation and human wisdom meet.
